Absolver gameplay footage punches above its weight
I kind of lost track of Absolver, the online melee action game, after it was announced in May 2016. However, publisher Devolver Digital has rekindled my interest with some new Absolver gameplay footage. See it above.

Mother Russia Bleeds review: The ’90s called, they want their game back
A long time ago (okay, a year ago), I had some hands-on experience with Mother Russia Bleeds. It impressed me as a modern iteration of the classic beat ‘em up genre, but that was hardly a full experience considering I only saw a couple levels. Now comes the full release in its head-smashing and drug-using glory, pixelated gore and all.
